Vista RC2 released

[Septimus]

Harsh skinny lol :) It's not that bad.

[iwod]

Well they are taking their time :D

[Jazket]

I don't see ultimate having one. it has almost everything you need. and then with ultimate extras, that could be the "ultimate plus! pack"

Edit:

Nevermind I got what you said ;)

Go back to bed. The Sun isn't even up in Redmond yet.

[Slimy]

IM(not so)HO, Vista's UI looks like a bad Windowblinds port. They could deliver it on my doorstep and I wouldn't install it.

@Skinnylegs WDNCAYO (we do not care about your opinion) in this thread. This is the wrong place for your trolling.

I'd imagine we won't see this until lunch time in Redmond ... can't wait to get this installed tonight. I have my flash drive loaded up with everything I need to copy over/install. I've finally got this reformat/reinstall thing down to a science of exactly what I need to reinstall. :yes:

Well considering it is a Friday, we could say that it should be up before 4pm. I'm waiting for this build to hit before I install a 500gb as primary (yeah bit big for primary, but it is slightly faster).

cool cant wait! :)

They could have made a deal to include Paint.NET with Vista. It's Free and very good.

ever looked at the copyright of paint.NET? it's made by interims and employees working for microsoft and is the property of microsoft. They wouldn't have to make a deal, but if they did it, they would surely get sued by adobe for including it. Think before you speak

[S.MULLA]

2.30pm in the uk now.. just sitting here waiting.... :(

[MidnightDevil]

hum, im waiting for it... any bug list corrections yet?

[lothodon]

did ms say the public would get rc2 today? or did paul say he thought ms would release it (not necessarily to the public) today? i'd hate for everyone to get their hopes up too high, myself included.

[Septimus]

Won't be until after 6PM GMT at the very earliest.... so watch a film or something.

It may be realsed to a select number of CPP testers... ( i don't see why not, 5536 and 5728 that were sposto be "tester" builds both made the pubic and yes i'm aware for the 100,000 download for 5536 )

[chisss]

I would say don't get the hopes up.. this might only be download via e-mail invitation for today and maybe Wednesday or Thursday next week we will have the public download..

Or I could be wrong too..lol but yea don't get the hopes up.. it's better that way ;)

[hajj_3]

there was a link here, which had the page ready for public download like with rc1 and 5728: http://download.windowsvista.com/preview/rc2/en/download.htm

as for paint.net, it wont be included im sure and as for the developers, its mainly by student at the university, but microsoft did give them a developer. Its ACE, would be a nice addition, maybe they will add it for download on the ms website instead of the university site.

cant wait to install rc2, hope it works on my sata2 drive (non-raid), didnt last time.

Are our lives so pittifully boring and dull that we wait on pins and needles for a Beta OS to be released??????????

[BoDEAN]

Won't be until after 6PM GMT at the very earliest.... so watch a film or something.

Or go outside and enjoy the Friday afternoon. Getting some fresh air is good for your lungs.

[wase4711]

I'm not too interested in SLI (well... I am...) but I wouldn't mind being able to just complete the installation with my 7950GX2.

I know NVIDIA are to blame (apparently) but MS still has a useless driver in all their recent builds... what's wrong with "Standard VGA Controller" anyway ? :p

Until I replaced my 7950gx2 with a ATI x1950xtx, I was never able to install Vista on this rig either...

They removed the link and now it just redirects us to the vista website ( whitch needs to be updated BIG time )
